Looked at my Hercules in my '71 109 the other day, data plate unreadable other than the serial number. Block casting numbers as follows: FS0M28265 11610199 18 916 Not sure what to make of it. Any ideas?

Looking good tDIZ. Similar to my setup. What did you use for an AC unit?

Congrats on your new ride, check the brakes, and drive safe!

Welcome from the Orlando area!

Nice install. What condenser did you use? Brand, part number?

No weird noises, vibes, smells? You sure it's running? :shock:

Welcome from Winter Springs.

Did a little fitting of the grey water tank today after jacking up the box about an inch and a half. Had the local expert (RAYZER) visit to give me some poop pipe pointers on routing the lines.

That is the grey tank. I use a self contained Thetford commode for now. They say I'm full of it, so 36 gallons might not be enough!

Hey Rusty, it is a Marey, model GA5LP. I got it on fleabay.

Thanks. It sits on top of the crossmembers below the box crossmembers. I will make some straps to secure it once I figure exactly where to locate it. Beware, the size tank I have REQUIRES the rear crossmember/hitch reinforcement to be removed to get it in place, as well as temporarily jacking...

Scheduling conflict on the tank fitment today, so put a few coats of poly satin on the stained cabinets. Somewhat of a shine now. Also, the small details can make a difference, used some felt silencer pads on the drawers and cabinet doors. No slamming now.

Thanks AA. I am following his build too. Tank not nearly that big, I think it is only 36 gallons.

Very similar to what I used tD. Very efficient and easy to use. Looks like you battery compartment is the same as mine. I found that after a short time the spring holding up on of the D batteries wouldn't hold it up against the contact any more. A small bit of aluminum foil fixed that. And...

All grade 8 bolts are now torqued. Have a few grade 5 in there, will be changed out when I can get more. Holes are staggered for two reasons. One, was to miss existing holes while drilling. Found out mag drill cutter didn't like drilling into an existing hole. ( shattered) Two, figured...

Welcome from Winter Springs!

You guys are great. That is why I called on you both. :tank:

Don't degrade yourself AA!

Went to an RV show yesterday, so no progress on Saturday. Today was killer hot so outside work out of the question. Plus I ran out of bolts. Oh well. So flipped on the AC and stained the cabinets instead. Still need lots of trim made and installed as well as a finish coat. But got...

Pretty much cleaned up the 45 year old shavings. Used the mag drill, turned it on and waved it around.
